Bruce Arians had no problems with Antonio Brown’s actions during practice on Thursday.

AB was tossed from the team’s joint practice with the Titans after ripping off corner Chris Jackson’s helmet and throwing punches.

After the outburst, you’d expect Buccaneers coach Bruce Arians to take issue with Antonio Brown, who really should be on a short leash given his history.

But Arians took a different route.

Instead of condemning the troubled receiver, Arians sounded like a coach who didn’t really have a problem with anything that went down during practice.

Bruce Arians has been able to keep Antonio brown out of trouble in Tampa. And after a successful showing last season, Tampa made sure to lock up the receiver.

Now, the team is tied to Brown for the foreseeable future. And will hope he continues to be on his best behavior going forward.

A little fighting might not be the worst thing Antonio Brown has gotten into over the course of his career, but it’s still not the best look for a guy with such a checkered past.
